[QUOTE="Gordon Skerratt, post: 83024, member: 2816"] I would recommend Amsoil. Check on there web page and they will tell you the proper fluid. Copied this from another site for: Amsoil synthetic ATF and Amsoil torque drive synthetic ATF are [U]THE ONLY[/U] synthetic transmission fluids compatible with the pre-2001 m6 transmissions. It is the only synthetic ATF that has additives to counteract the swelling of cellulose compounds that occurs when they are exposed to synthetic ATF. The cellulose components are the blocker rings (replaced with carbon fiber in 2001), and if you use anything but traditional petroleum based DexIII ATF or the above listed Amsoil fluids, you are ruining your transmission. Using the wrong fluid is not something you will notice until about a year or two after the fact, and it cannot be reversed without a rebuild. Amsoil torque drive synthetic is the better of the 2 Amsoil fluids, and is hands down the absolute best fluid you can put in your pre-2001 m6 transmission. Personally, I would still use it in a 2001+ m6 or m12, and many people do. [/QUOTE]
